PDOGenerator is not compatible with Python 2.0 for other reasons; I'm
not sure how you got that to work, unless you added an argument to the
time.localtime() call in the constructor (or dropped it).  I've fixed
that in CVS to make it more compatible.

I can't reproduce this at all (Python 2.0.1, 2.1.3, 2.2.2, 2.3a0), and
don't see any obvious place where there's anything being done to the
body text.

Barry, does this smell like something locale-specific creeping in?  ;-(
